England fans - who do you want to win?

[marc71178]

After our abject, spineless and totally predictable capitulation and being finally put out of the tournament, which of the 4 semi-finalists do you want to win?

 

[LA ICE-E]

South Africa or New Zealand. I don't think anyone would want Australia to win.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Went for the kiwis, although wouldn't have any issue with Sri Lanka either.

 

[GIMH]

What Brumby said. It could only be one of them two, so I'm backing NZ because they have more great posters on here (Craigos, Voltman, James himself etc)

Didn't vote obviously, but if Australia can't win:

Sri Lanka
South Africa
New Zealand

New Zealand, as said before, are last becuase we will never, ever, hear the end of it if they win. NEVER.

 

[LongHopCassidy]

Would be content with engineering an SA choke and an NZ thrashing in the semi-final and final, respectively.

 

[Hoppy1987]

Sri Lanka to win, would be far less Pommie bashing then!

 

[Prince EWS]

I disagree. Regardless of who wins the World Cup, England still performed direly in it and will be criticised.

Agreed - saaying that we are dire isn't pommy bashing because it is unfortunately true

 

[Barney Rubble]

Anyone but Australia, TBH. Preferably SL, always liked them.

 

[PY]

Got a soft spot for South Africa as a country so voted for them. Anyone but the Aussies really, because I think it would be better for cricket if they didn't win everything all the time.

They do deserve it thus far though so I won't begrudge them the win.

 

[KiWiNiNjA]

Yay for NZ!!!!

NEVER!!!!!!!

Sri Lanka
New Zealand,

massive space

South Africa

even bigger space

Australia

Australia

I second Grecian's viewpoint although I think I would emphasize the gap between SRL, NZ and RSA even more!

 

[Richard]

South Africa, obviously.

Though I wouldn't be terribly unhappy with either SL or NZ, both have 2 of the best sides we've ever seen from them at the current time.

Australia, obviously, I'm bored of winning World Cups. FFS, it's 8 years since they last lost a game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't know what Raghav and LA-ICE E were thinking of - did Marc really not make it clear enough?

 

[Poker Boy]

Sri Lanka - if only because it might make someone at ECB HQ realise they have quite a good coach....

 

[Richard]

Who WA have already laid claim to...

Can't really be expected as can be seen here.
